My Project

The comfortable seating options will give my students a place to enjoy reading. These chairs will be used on a daily basis by all my students to encourage their love of reading. My plan is to put these comfy chairs in my classroom library for our library station during centers.

My goal is to allow my students a place to relax and read!

My students really love going to our classroom library and the new seating options will provide greater enjoyment for my students while they are reading their favorite books!
